Chapter 213: Chapter 213: If it's to survive
[Error detected. Unable to Proceed with Escape Protocols.]
Ye Liang's eyes widened in disbelief. His last hope was now crumbling before him, and he could feel the grip of fear tightening around his heart.
"How...?" His voice trembled, and sweat formed on his forehead despite the cold. "How did you...?"
All his confidence had disappeared and he was starting to freak out. The reason he was confident before was because he knew that he could not be killed. It was no different than having an extra life.
In this moment, he saw that extra life suddenly disappear. He could not escape even if he was to be killed.
"I am the one chosen by heaven!" He screamed as Eren only smiled at him instead of answering. His face was distorted in anger and panic. "You can't kill me! I am destined to be great! I can't die here!"
"Don't worry. I know all too well about the plot armor of the Main Characters..." Eren finally said with an amused smile on his lips. It was fun to see fear in the eyes of the arrogant character who had tried to kill him.
"Why did you think I let you live for so long, despite being poisoned by you?" he asked. "I'm not the main character like you. So it took me some time to prepare."
Ye Liang had already realized that Eren knew he was the one who poisoned the wine. But hearing it from his mouth confirmed it.
"I didn't want to kill you! I was forced by the system! It was a quest!" he exclaimed, trying every possible thing to survive.
"I will change! I will abandon that quest if you let me live! With my help, you will also become stronger! Together, the two of us will become the strongest beings in the world!
"Forced by the system?" Eren laughed so loud that it echoed in the entire hall. "What a coincidence? Me too."
As soon as he finished speaking, he stabbed a dagger in Ye Liang's thighs before Ye Liang could even comprehend or respond to his words.
Although he put on a begging front, deep down he was filled with hate. He had already swore on his life that if he was going to survive today, he was going to make Eren's life a living hell.
While Ye Liang was still in the middle of his sentence, Eren's claws stabbed his chest, gripping onto his heart.
"No... No, please..." His voice faded into a whimper as his consciousness began to slip away.
Ye Liang coughed out a mouthful of blood as he watched Eren pull out his claw which was holding on to his heart.
A large sound of thunder responded in the surroundings as dark clouds appeared above the Great Demon Sect. It started raining heavily, many people occasionally noticing lightning flash in the sky.
"How cute. It seems you truly are a child of heaven. Even heaven seems to be crying for you." Eren gazed out the window while holding Ye Liang's heart in his hand.
Life drained from Ye Liang's eyes. The room grew silent once more as his unsteady breathing came to a sudden stop.
He was supposed to be the greatest person to ever live. He even had the help of the system, yet he was killed so easily without even being able to resist.
Even as he closed his eyes in death, a self deprecating smile remained on his lips as if he was laughing at himself. Was he really the main character of this world? Or was he just a stepping stone for the real main character... he wondered in his death.
Eren checked once again to make sure that Ye Liang was actually dead. He was still uncertain as the Main Characters had a habit of not staying dead.
He was soon able to confirm that he had died, but still Eren didn't want to take any risks. He kept Ye Liang's body in his inventory, planning to never let it leave his inventory.
Inside his inventory, the time was completely stopped. Even if the Main Character had plot armor after his death, but when the time for the body had stopped, there was not much the plot armor could do.
After taking care of the body, he stood up and walked over to the window, looking at the lightning in the sky.
"I don't care why I was brought to this world. But if it's to survive, I will do anything... including killing the ones favored by you..."
